The rights and obligations of the Company's preferred shares B are as below:

The record date for pricing is one business day prior to the pricing date and the record date for reset is two business days prior to the interest rate reset date. The IRS rate is the arithmetic mean of 7-year IRS rates appearing on Reuters pages 'TAIFXIRS' and 'COSMOS3' at 11:00 a.m. (Taipei time) on the relevant record date. If such rate cannot be obtained, the company will determine the rate based on reasonable market price with good faith. (supplementary information)

(2)Cash dividends will be paid annually. Once the Company's audited financial statements have been recognized at the annual general meeting of the shareholders, the Board of Directors shall be authorized to set the payment date for the distribution of the payable preferred share dividends for the previous year. Dividend distributions in issuance and redemption years shall be calculated based on the actual number of days the preferred shares remained outstanding in that year.

(3)If the Company posts earnings in its final accounts, in accordance with applicable laws, it shall first be used for payment of tax obligations and making up of losses, then set aside as legal reserve and allocated or reversed to the special reserve fund.

The remaining earnings, if any, may first be used to distribute preferred share dividends of the year.

(4)The Company has sole discretion on the distribution of preferred share dividends. If no earnings are posted in the final accounts or earnings posted are insufficient to distribute preferred share dividends, or if

a preferred share dividend distribution will cause the Company's capital adequacy ratio to fall below the minimum requirement stipulated by the law or the competent authorities, or based on other necessary considerations, the Company may resolve not to distribute preferred share dividends without it being deemed as an event of default. The undistributed dividends or the deficit of dividends will not be accumulated for deferred payment in the subsequent years where there are earnings.

(5)Shareholders of preferred shares may not participate in the distribution of cash and stock dividends of the common shares derived from earnings or reserves.

Preferred shareholders have the right to vote at preferred shareholders' meeting and at shareholders' meeting where items on the agenda would affect rights and obligations of preferred shareholders.

Unredeemed preferred shares continue to carry rights and obligations of the issuance conditions set forth under this article.

In the year of a redemption of preferred shares, if the Company resolves to distribute dividends, dividends to be distributed up to the redemption date shall be calculated by the actual number of days of the year issued and outstanding.
